Top bar beekeeping really is 'beekeeping for everyone' - including people with mobility problems, bad backs, or a general reluctance to lift boxes: there is no heavy lifting once your hive is in place, as honey is harvested by the comb rather than by the box. Top bar hives are good for bees, good for the beekeeper and good for the environment. In this book, I will show you how easy it can be to build your own hive from scratch, using new or reclaimed timber and a few simple tools. If you can make a decent job of putting up a shelf, you can build yourself a fully functioning hive that bees will be proud to call home. By the author of The Barefoot Beekeeper.

  • Excellent book.

    A practical alternative to conventional bee hives, that you can build for yourself, with the added bonus that the hives are better for the bees. If you are disenchanted with the continuous focus on honey production at the expense of bee welfare, then this and its sister book will start you on a new path of bee husbandry. The book is clear and concise, written in plain English and easy to follow. Recommended.

  • utterly useless

    this book is an utter waste of money, I'm no closer to building my hive than I was by looking for information on google or yahoo. Don't buy this book if you are looking for plans for the construction of a hive. You'd be better off buying the "Bee-keeping for Dummies".
